The 43rd annual Tire Kingdom NHRA Gatornationals at Gainesville, FL was postponed due to wet weather in the area Sunday afternoon.
Eliminations will resume Monday, March 11, at 10 a.m. (EDT) at Auto-Plus Raceway. Television coverage of postponed eliminations will air Monday at 12:30 p.m. on ESPN2 HD.
Funny Car pilot Robert Hight drove his Auto Club of Southern California Ford Mustang all the way to the semifinal round before the weather delay began at 4:20 p.m. The Phoenix event winner was worried this would be a rough weekend but he managed to take out rookie Blake Alexander and Ron Capps en route to the semifinals.
“I thought the weekend was going to be really rough because I started off losing my luggage when I got here and now we’ve got rain but the plus side is that we’re running strong and I’m still in it so I’ll be here tomorrow,” Hight said. “I’ll be here for a couple more days if that’s what it takes but tomorrow looks good so hopefully we can finish this thing up tomorrow and I can put this Auto Club Mustang back in the winner’s circle.”
